Living for Jesus and Justice

Red Letter Christians UK will be launched in JUNE 2019 through a series of prophetic public actions, events and seminars in seven cities across the UK.   Red Letter Christians founders Shane Claiborne and Tony Campolo will appear alongside UK-based spiritual activists who are already working to foster hope and justice in their own communities. Events include:

Red Letter Seminars hosted by local communities to encourage and connect those on the front line of fighting injustice. Shane, Tony and local activists will share their stories and insights.

Red Letter Actions held in public squares give a prophetic focus to an injustice that breaks Jesus’ heart in the city. For some cities this will include local activists melting down knives into objects of hope to highlight systematic violence and to stand with victims.

Red Letter Living gatherings that bring young people together and amplify local voices for Jesus and justice.
